From: Joseph Vito Bacino on
One extra thing we do is make a security group for each folder we
redirect. Exp: MyDocs folder would have a "MyDocAdmins" group.
(little extra work, but is helpful)

It never fails that an owner or office manger wants access employee
files to check up on them. I would not however allow this for normal
file Sharing.

If it is needed, all we need to do is add the user to the security group
and they have access.

For the security group, just follow the line that is for the domain
admins group.
"MyDocsAdmin" Full Control (Apply onto: This Folder, Subfolders and Files)

Your group policy is OK then - nothing more to worry about there.

On the Share permissions set Everyone (or Domain Users if you prefer,
doesn't matter) to Full Control. Then make the rest of the changes on the
Security tab.

For the sync one, please read the whole KB. I haven't read it in a while
but I think there are some other changes you need to make - maybe a registry
edit?

Sorry for being so dense!! I really don't want to mees this up.

1. Under "User Folders" Properies, The "sharing" Tab the Permissions Box is
clicked, Tab labeled Share permissions, I have 3 groupsall with full control.
Domain Admins
Domain Users
Folder Operators
Do I leave all of these or remove all but Domain Users with full control?

2. under the security tab of "usser folders" properties
I have 4 groups:
Domain Admins - Full control
Domain Usesrs - Special Permissions -
Folder Operators - Full Control
System - Full Control
I added the group "Creator Owner" with full control.
Advancesd Box clicked, for Special Permissions, Shows advanced Security
settings for shared user folders. Selecting "Domain Users", "Permission
Special" and edit button shows "applies onto This folder and Files, the
following:
Full Control - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Transverse Folder/execute file - Allow checked
List folder/Read Data - Allow checked
Read Attributes - Allow checked
Creat Files/Write Data - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Create Data/Append Data - Allow checked
Write Attributes - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Write Extended Atributes - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Delete Subfolders and files - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Delete - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Read Permissions - Allow Checked
Change Ownership - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
Take Ownership - Unchecked - Allow/Deny
At the bottom of the box a check mark is in front of "apply these
permissions to objects and/or containers withing this container only.
Do I change the Domain users permissions here to agree with the KB27443
Artical for Everyone - or - do I "add" another entry for everyone that
applies to "this folder only" allowing Create/Append, List/Read, Read
Attributes, Transvers folder/Execute?

Going back to the Advanced page security setings Permissions tab there are
no check marks in the Allow inheritable permissions from parent to propagate
to this object.
Or
Replace permission entries on all child objects within entries shown.

When I get this accomplished I will move on the the Article KB 811660 and
edit registery as per for each machine effected.

1. You can leave the Share permissions as is.

2. See inline. A quick comment - whenever I've done this I just use the
documentation, so I don't have these settings in my head. I'm a little
concerned about the possibility of giving you a wrong answer that might lock
out your users from their files. If I were doing this in my production
environment, I'd do it after hours, or at least at a time when the office is
mostly empty, then I'd test a user's access at the end to make sure
everything is working as expected. You can either use your own account for
that if you have the same permissions as the regular users, or ask someone
to leave his/her computer logged in so you can test at the end.

FWIW, I'd exactly match the settings in the KB. For example, I doubt you'll
see any difference in functionality between "Everyone" and "Domain Users,"
but why not just use the recommended group?

What ends up happening is that Everyone only has access to the top-level
folder (because of the "This folder only" setting). Then the individual
users get full control because of the Creator Owner setting applied to
subfolders and files. So using Everyone isn't a security issue as it might
appear to be.

OK

OK

Why? Do you have anyone in this security group, or any Domain Power Users?
If you don't want these people to have access, I'd remove this one.

OK

OK. On the advanced tab, the Creator Owner permissions should be set to
"Subfolders and files only."

Probably not a big deal but this one should be unchecked.

This should be unchecked. When you change it from "This folder and files"
to "This folder only," you won't be able to choose that option anyway.

Personally, I'd match it exactly to the documentation as I said above. You
can add the Everyone permissions exactly as described in the KB, and then
delete Domain Users.

OK, that's right. When folders get created under this, they'll
automatically inherit the correct permissions from here, by default.

From: D.Sweet on
An update on the Sync Issue, the Information in
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811660
Appears to have fixed the sync issue.
One question I had thoug, if no one person is solely assigned to the machine
and you leave the dword value out for that step will it causse any great
concerns? I have not seen any yet.
Am intending on working through the user folder permissions this week end
when everyone is on holiday and will advise of the outcome then.
Thanks for the input.
